here is where the big numbers come in. the republican speaker has staked his leadership on the plan to let the treasury borrow $900 billion right away, while cutting $915 billion in future spending. contrast that with the senate plan from majority leader reid which would hike the debt by $2.7 trillion by cutting spending by $2.2 trillion. it's not clear when the senate will vote on anything, actually. and that brings me to cnn correspondent, kate bolduan. >> reporter: sounds like they are cautionly optimistic. i am told speaker boehner said they do not have the votes yet but will pass that pill, and some news, on the senate side, the senate majority leader harry reid took to the floor and said this evening, tonight, the senate will move to act on the boehner bill. this assumes that boehner secures the votes and does pass in the house, but this is significant, because all along we have been hearing that there was a sense that the senate was waiting to act to see what happens with the boehner bill, and harry reid was clear o

so that is a big deal. the other thing is that what is more important is the loss perhaps in credibility. the speaker said his plan was going to, you know, save something like over a trillion dollars. but it only saves about $850 billion. so that's a bill difference, too. a question of credibility. on the other hand, he buys some time, because there are a number of people in the house of representatives, some of whom who actually spoke out last night and said this thing is not going to pass. i'm not going to vote for it. he gets a little bit more time to try to drum up the support he needs, because once he puts something on the floor, he has got to get a yea vote. >> all right. dan, you know, there is some talk of a band-aid slash patch approach. what would that do? >> reporter: well, look. a message you've heard from the white house last week or so, that the president does not embrace a short-term deal, but if, in fact, it does appear that there is some compromise happening, that both sides have agreed to
